» Tribune’s Grain, Livestock and Market Report for Tues., ¢ STOGK PRICES TILT UPWARD AS TRADING REMAINS LISTLESS Market Pursues Ziz-Zag Course; Rail Shares Again Are in Fair Demand —__ New York, Nov. 29.—()—Prices tilted moderately upward in another dull, listless trading session on the Stock exchange Tuesday. The market pursued a zig-zag course early, then firmed appreciably to enter the afternoon with most leading shares showing gains ranging from fractions to about a point. Rails were again in fair demand. After selling down about a point at the opening, Union Pacific and Santa Fe erased their losses and mov- ed a point higher on the day. South- ern Pacific, New York Central and Pennsylvania were slightly improved. U. 8, Steel held steady in a narrow range, most of the time a slim frac- |G, tion above Monday's close. Small gains were also made by Westing- house, General Electric, General Mo- tors, and Standard of New Jersey. United Aircraft, American Telephone, Case, National Biscuit and Coca Cola gained as much as a point. Interna- tional Business Machines was a soft, spot, declining about 4 points at one time, but later recovering half of its loss, The company’s directors de- clared a regular quarterly dividend of $1.50 a share, but made no distri- bution in the form of a stock dividend. Last year at this time a dividend of 5 per cent in stock was declared. Selling of the Tobacco stocks in the last half hour proved unsettling, and the list closed with a barely steady tone, with mixed gains and _ losses, largely of inconsequential propor- tions. half a million shares. o— | ° Livestock SO.

Unfavorable reports of domestic wheat crops, with Kansas fields %|showing a growth stage of 36 per cent in the western third of the state as against 52 last year, attracted special notice, up compared with Monday’s finish, Dec. 41%, May 46% to %; corn %-1 down, Dec. 23, May 277-28; oats %s- 10 cents lower. ity to grain values in the face of new dictions that December unofficial do- mestic estimates would show a re- lowest condition on record. A prob- wheat estimate was likewise suggest- ed. Emphasis was also put on persist- ent curtailment of United States pri- mary receipts of wheat and on critical tina, especially extreme heat in big producing sections. On rebounds of prices from early isetbacks, wheat in some cases scored y, |8ains of more than ‘2 cent a bushel. A tendency to narrow the December | ng, discount as compared with May was apparent at times. Corn and oats displayed less rallying power and stop loss selling of corn developed. Decem- ber and May corn sold at a new low price for the season. Provisions held firm. MINNEAPOLIS FUTURES SUFFER SHARP BREAK Minneapolis, Nov. 29.—(?)—The lo- cal wheat futures market gave a fairly good account of itself most of the session Tuesday but encountered @ spurt of mill selling near the close that. forced a quick break. Trade was moderate during the de- cline. All grain continued to feel the * | weight of wheat weakness. Foreign ;|money and crop news was bearish. Aside from crusher buying of flax} futures there was little to comment} on where coarse grains were concern- ed. - | December and May wheat closed 42¢ lower. December rye closed 4c higher and May ‘sc higher. December oats closed 4%¢ lower and May \%-% lower. December flax closed ‘ic highey and May “ic higher.
